Thanks for the reviews!
CHAPTER 11
Lily was slightly relieved, he was there for her, but he had made it clear that he was there as a friend and nothing more. Lily's heart had broken when he had told her that, although he had said we are in this together he meant as mates.
She had holed up in her room staying away from him, fear creeping into her mind. Sure he was here to help her but she would never forgive herself if he died or became seriously injured.
----
Mark felt like a shit, it hurt him to tell her that friends only…but he was hurting from before and it was going to take time for him to trust her and get to know the "real her" before he could move forwards.
He slowly walked up the stairs and noted that her door was once again locked when he heard noises down stairs. Lily had obviously heard them too as her door flew open and she dragged him over to her.
"Listen and listen carefully STAY in your room! I will see what it is…and don't pull any shit with me, I'm neither in the mood nor want to deal with any of your shit" she hissed, and gave him a glare as he went to protest.
"Please, just listen to what I am telling you, I have been at this Longer than you can imagine" she pushed him gently to his room and watched as he shut the door.
----
Lily crept downstairs and dropped to the floor as shadows went past the windows and the panes of the doors.
She crept from her place near the stairs and over to where her knives were sitting openly on the table, grabbing the she darted around the house tracking where the shadows where. Satisfaction crept onto her face as she heard a blood curdling scream come from near the back door.
She smirked as she turned a corner, there was one of the men half in and half out of the window, she had had fun setting this one up. Although some may think it was sadistic and evil. When it comes to your life…who cares?
She frowned as the blood dripped onto the floor.
"Now now Mr., guests only…and you're dirtying the floor. Shame on you, do you have no respect for other peoples things?" she mocked
He hissed in pain as he tried to move and Lily found herself getting and odd form of satisfaction from it…of course she didn't want him to die, she needed him.
She sighed, "Want some help?"
He nodded and hissed once more, "Yes" he croaked as she took steps forward
"Did my mother beg for mercy? Did she receive it? Do you wish for mercy? Do you want help?" she drew back a fist and followed through with a fist to the face for good measure. Kneeling down to where the damage was she released the bear trap from around his ankle and yanked him through the window.
"You're lucky these are easily cleaned floors, or I might suspect you would be cleaning the mess up, injured or not? Of course I wouldn't know I don't own the house" she smirked, she lugged him to a chair and wrapped a shirt around his wounds, it hadn't done the most damage it could have but it was bad enough to get a point across.
"Now im going to ask you a couple of questions...I'm not going to beat them out of you…I'm not AS bad as you…although I do have you to thank for the way I am today" She snapped
He nodded grimly and shot a look at the steps as he saw Mark standing there. He cringed which caught lily's attention.
----
Lily rolled her eyes. So mark would see the hurt and slightly nastier side of her, his problem not hers.
"Now how many more of you pricks are there?" she circled him
"2" he winced
"They here?" she asked
"No, not here?" he replied whimpering in pain again
"Well you'll see them soon, call them and tell them to pick you up from the front gate…tell them to bring it" she got in one more shot to his head and dragged him to the door. Although he was heavier she managed and kicked him out the door.
----
"So…mind telling me why you invited some assholes to my place and what happened to that guy?" Mark asked taking up a towel from the laundry rack and soaking up the blood on the floor.
"That…well its called a nicer version of interrogation…I told them to bring it because I want this over with, I know there were four of the guys when they took my mother…3 are here and one is well…indisposed…permanently…and he had a run in with a bear trapped window" she answered as if it was all common knowledge.
"Your cold" he replied and Lily stood there dumbfounded
"I'm cold? Me! Fuck you mark, friends support each other. And tell me something would you be all warm and sunshine after knowing that people killed your mother and the man who helped you out…would you be a happy person if people tried a number of times to kill you? Would you be ecstatic if after finally finding a form of family and love in the cruel world you call life, you had to run from it so they remained alive? I am NOT cold, I am surviving" she snapped with tears in her eyes.
"Lily…" he was cut off by the phone ringing, grabbing it he talked to them and then hung up
"That was Vince, he, Ashley and Maria are on their way here from the airport to see me and help find you…" he said sighing.
"Mark, I am sorry, I wish none of this had happened to a degree" her voice was small and quiet
"To a degree?" mark felt like a heel, she was surviving the way she knew how and he realized that now after she had said about how she wasn't cold but surviving. He knew in his heart that he loved her but he would wait until this was over before he tried anything.
"If I hadn't have moved here to the states, hadn't found the job at the WWE I wouldn't have met you…and in some way I'm thankful for my journey…and others not so much…just know whatever happens, I still Love you" she whispered the last part before heading to reset the bear trap.
Things were going to become harder now with 4 other people to worry about, she would hole them up in their rooms until this was over.
